Hey, just when you think you are the shit
Well, you look down and your fly is unzipped
That's when you take a moment to say
"Well, sometimes I'm so, so totally unhip"

Just when the great ones inspire you
To throw caution to the wind
And that's when the mirror the mirror on the wall says
"Babe, you better throw your towel in"

All that I don't know paralyzes me

There are legends who die and I've never even heard their songs
And there are heroes of a generation whose poetry is not on my shelf
And my soliloquies would make Shakespeare turn over in his grave

I wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me

Well I wish I could fight against Ali and win
I wish I could write with Joni Mitchell's pen

Maybe I'll fool everybody into thinking
I know what just what I am doing

And I wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to make a fool out of me
Wonder if God is trying to
